The problem

Your team doesn’t need another AI tool.

It probably already has enough. The bigger opportunity is hiding inside the work your marketers repeat every week.

Research

Research gets copied into briefs, spreadsheets and documents by hand.

Content operations

Content moves between people and tools before anything gets published.

Data & reporting

Teams repeatedly export, clean, combine and explain the same data.

Lead qualification

People research, score and route prospects through repetitive manual checks.

CRM admin

Valuable team time disappears into logging, updating and chasing records.

PR & outreach

Monitoring, journalist research and pitch preparation start from scratch too often.

The better question is not “Where can we use AI?” It is “Which piece of work should we stop doing manually first?”
What could we fix?

Choose the bottleneck, not the shiny object.

You do not need to automate your whole marketing department. We choose one recurring workflow where the economics and operational pain justify fixing it.

Research → Brief

Turn recurring research, monitoring and source gathering into structured briefs.

Content → Approval

Connect creation, QA, human approval, publishing and repurposing.

Data → Insight

Reduce manual exports, spreadsheet wrangling, reporting and first-pass analysis.

Lead → Route

Research, enrich, score and route leads against explicit qualification rules.

CRM → Action

Reduce logging, updating, follow-up admin and stale records.

PR → Pitch

Automate monitoring, journalist discovery, opportunity matching and preparation.

The 30-day Sprint

From manual bottleneck to working system.

Week 1

Diagnose & Design

Map the workflow, manual steps, handoffs, decisions, delays and failure points. Agree the success metric before anything gets built.

Week 2

Build

Create the AI-enabled workflow using your existing stack wherever practical. Connect the systems, data and actions needed to keep work moving.

Week 3

Test & Govern

Test outputs, exceptions and failure cases. Add human approvals, permissions, escalation paths and quality controls where they matter.

Week 4

Train & Handover

Train the team, document the system and compare the new workflow with the baseline from Week 1.

What you get

A working workflow, not a strategy deck.

Remove work without removing control.

  • AI handles repetitive steps
  • Humans stay where judgement matters
  • Clear rules and escalation
  • Fewer handoffs and faster cycles
  • More marketing capacity
Proof

We build these systems, not just slides about them.

We approach AI automation from the marketing operation backwards. Start with the work, not the tool.

Fit

This is deliberately narrow.

Best fit

  • B2B SaaS or agency marketing team
  • Established marketing activity and real workflow volume
  • Recurring work consuming valuable capacity
  • Pressure to increase output without immediately adding headcount
  • Some AI experimentation but no dependable workflow yet
  • Human control still matters

What this isn’t

  • A six-month AI transformation programme
  • A generic ChatGPT workshop
  • A strategy deck followed by “good luck”
  • Twenty disconnected AI use cases
  • An attempt to automate your entire department
  • Automation for automation’s sake

Pick your most expensive repetitive marketing workflow.

We’ll redesign and automate it in 30 days, with the governance, training and handover needed to make it usable by the team.
